Hack Challenge

After H4X0R has successfully accomplished the first hack challenge, he had nothing else to do and got bored. As he is a little upset since the PhyLiSec workshop reviews were pretty negative, he decided to again hack DISCO's network. During the first hack challenge, you noticed that there is some damn vulnerable web application on the webserver from which you stole the exam (http://131.246.19.171/websec/). The teaching assistant who administrates that server thought it might be secure enough to restrict the access to that application to the university network (IP 131.246.*). However, he did not take into account that the infamous H4X0R gained access to that network and is planning his next malicious actions already.

Tasks

To complete the second hack challenge, you have to do the following tasks:

  1. Get access to that web application
  2. Complete the CSRF, XSS, and SQL Injection modules
  3. Send proof (credentials and screenshots) to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
